While all these are highly covetable, it’s the humble satchel that’s making the biggest waves for style-cutting, on-the-go fashionistas and festival-goers. The Cambridge Satchel Company launched their Gummy satchel earlier this year to critical acclaim, but snatching up a piece from the most sought-after satchel brand around right now is bound to burn a hole in your wallet; indeed, the bag retails for around £140 (€163) or so! A refreshing alternative comes in the form of Om Diva‘s clear neon-pink offering, practically identical for a mere fraction of the price at €42 (circa £35) – I’ve purchased the tinted-blue version myself and found it gives any outfit, however minimal or maximal, an uber-on-trend edge. There’s currently a sale on in the boutique (which can be found on Drury Street in Dublin) so be sure to pop in and pick up a crystal-clear satchel to see you through the summer (the resilient plastic fabric is the perfect counter-attack for muddy festivals after all!)

Hi tifftoffee – yes, with the concept of plastic bags you wouldn’t automatically think they’d look stylish! That’s a gorgeous-looking bag though, practical in the sense of its fabric (as you were saying, handy cleanup) and size so you could easily do a round in the town in it, shopping or picking up supplies – the beauty of the trend though is that perspex has extended to so many different bag types over this season, so you’re bound to find a style that’s perfect for you :)

Perspex does sound fab. I had one given to me by a friend in Florida – unfortunately in tiny Schull – they don’t work too well. That’s only because the people there are maybe a bit more narrow minded. For a young woman around a city – it would look SO cool. You’re great, Amelia. Keeping us all up to date with the latest……..

I get what you mean Carole, I spent a couple of years living in a small Italian town and often found I had to curb my style habits to not seem like a complete spectacle! Anytime you’re planning city trips however you should definitely bring it, at the moment it truly is bang-on-trend and really stylish-looking :) thank you as always Carole!! :D xx
